  1. Well I am assuming this is the same oxford and cambridge examinations boards that I did at school all those years ago. If it is, then they seem to have come down in the world if they are offering this. I wonder if the exam is as tough as the ones I took for ‘O’ levels (and there I go showing my age 😉 )

  2. Round here you’re in good company, not a gcse between us…

  3. We did ski-ing for Standard Grade (Scottish, like GSCE) P.E. Couldn’t quite cope with the thought of Higher P.E. though! I was starting to show myself up…

  4. I’ve got 10 GCSE’s but none in PE!

  5. I scraped a few O levels but only by more luck than judgement and the idea of any sort of excercise at that stage of my life would probably have killed me!
